Jets win again for Maurice, topping Predators

Olli Jokinen, Andrew Ladd and Devin Setoguchi each scored for the Jets, who
are now 11-3-1 since Paul Maurice took over as head coach.

"If he could see it (the puck) for the most part he had it," Maurice said of
Pavelec. "He was our best player tonight."

Simon Moser's first NHL goal summed up the Predators' offense, while Carter
Hutton gave up three goals on 20 shots in defeat. Nashville has dropped four
of its last five games.

"They capitalized on a couple chances that they had and we didn't," said
Predators head coach Barry Trotz. "At the end of the day, our game was pretty
good in a lot of areas."

Winnipeg got second-period goals from Jokinen and Ladd before Moser's tip put
the Predators on the board at the 9:11 mark of the third period.

Setoguchi restored the Jets' two-goal advantage with 3:52 remaining. Blake
Wheeler helped set up the goal, blazing down the left wing. Hutton made a pad
stop on Wheeler, but Setoguchi knocked in the rebound.

After a scoreless first period, Jokinen beat Hutton high on the right side on
a shot from the left circle at 5:02 of the second.

Ladd made it 2-0 when he got his stick on Zach Bogosian's shot and redirected
it past Hutton with 1:42 remaining.
